Very Computer

hi all,
whether any commands that can show the remaining unused memory slot
inside the sun sparc box?

download memconf from sun freeware

There is no Solaris command which stright away do it for us, but
try the attached "memconf" perl script.  It expect to have Perl
at /usr/local/bin/perl, else modify the script.

This gives very comprehensive output on Memory. like as follows:

$ ./memconf
hostname: kansa
Sun Ultra 2 UPA/SBus (2 X UltraSPARC-II 296MHz)
socket U0501 has a 64MB DIMM
socket U0401 has a 64MB DIMM
socket U0701 has a 64MB DIMM
socket U0601 has a 64MB DIMM
socket U0502 has a 16MB DIMM
socket U0402 has a 16MB DIMM
socket U0702 has a 16MB DIMM
socket U0602 has a 16MB DIMM
empty sockets: U0503 U0403 U0703 U0603 U0504 U0404 U0704 U0604
total memory = 320MB

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Bhavin
